Scuba Lessons

Tt's our Diving School ...

Not our Yachts !!!

Hey hey .. i juz took up scuba lessons and is ready for the showdown at Pulau Tioman this friday to Sunday. LOL. so excited and yet fearful. Cos after undergoing these two days of basic training lesssons in the pool and the theory lessons, realised the risks involved ... so somehow will feel frightened... juz hope everything goes smoothly in the open water dives. ***GOD BLESS ME !

Everyday, we went all the way to Tanah Merah mrt stat to take the 10.30am shuttle bus to SAF Yacht Club at a pretty ulu place ... On this bus, we would meet our assistant coach DEAN ALAN LAWRANCE - a young ang mo which captivates Marg ! Haha ... always sit beside her wan ... As usual, the four of us with sleepy looks appeared in front of the Coach Alex. Alex is a nice person overall, juz tt he got a picky tongue ... and he's damn good in "motivating us.... The first day i was there, he gave me a new name - Felicia ... Dotz ! And he call Meixian "Lulu" ... So funny... enjoyed the lessons with him..cos he's always tt funny... Haha. The 1st 3 hrs would be Theory lessons which we would go through the textbook in details; in betweeen got small loo breaks. Then follow by lunch break at ard 1 plus ... there's only a cafe/restaurant there,so without any choice, we settled our lunch over there BUT the Hor Fun there is Nice at the price of $4.80 after staff discounts (by our Coach) !!! I ate that for two days le ... The fried rice is also one of the recommendation by our Coach. And i realised during lunch, Dean realli like spicy ... he would gobble up the whole plate of red chilli... Salute him - dunno tt ang mo likes spicy stuffs. Haha..

Anyway Dean is a nice guy who tries very hard to "enlighten" us in the pool... Quite encouragin to me BUT for Marg and Meixian, they hates it,cos they do not comprehend what he tried to say them underwater...LOL. I must admit i also have a bit of difficulty in understanding the language he speaking - maybe cos he's from South Africa ... the asscent is abit weird ... and during lunch todae that i know that Dean had made 1000 +++ dives liao .... Amazing sia ... When can i do tt ? Haha .. FAT HOPES !

The pool sessions were bad .. 1. Due to the rainy weather 2. Cos we are new to all the equipments 3. Cos i am a NON-SWIMMER 4. I am DENSE ... LOL .. Trying hard to master the skills .. will try to tackle all the problems in tioman on Sat in the open sea ... Gambatte , i believe i can do it !

Well ... Wait for more updates k .... when i m back on Sunday Nite !! Wish me luck and safety ...
